There were 2 separate polls of 2 choices.

1. Pei Qian staying poor (basically intro scene of ep 1) vs the entire Tengda Company becoming rich together

2. The company soars together vs The company's rivals shut down

Apparently, they made 4 endings for the show, and the one shown was the one chosen in a poll.

For me personally, I would have enjoyed it a lot more if they kept to the comedy theme present in the first 30% of the show, where PQ does absurd stuff and it ends up profiting. It's not even about moving away from the novel, but just in general, the show has shifted to a completely different tone from the first half. They also keep mentioning PQ's dilemma, where he has to decide between earning money or appreciate the work of his employees.

This was a 9-9.5/10 show for me in the beginning but after watching recent episodes, especially episode 21, I just straight up lost interest. I was totally okay with replacing the system with a business tycoon because of censorship or wtv, but then now there's a whole ass plot around the tycoon's son(s?) and then PQ doesn't even do PQ stuff anymore, he's just there as a side character lmao.

I watched the Donghua, and I agree.

I dislike how they made PQ so pitiful. In the drama, I actually feel sad for PQ, whereas in the Donghua, he was still living a decent life despite 'losing'. The tone of the drama has completely shifted and the comedy isn't really present anymore, it's just a typical drama atm. I was looking forward to this drama from more than a year ago too...

Wang Zifei, or her short drama pseudonym, He Tian Tian.

Acted as one of the many wives of the 3rd Prince (Huang Sibo in this drama) in New Life Begins.

Fun Fact: That figurine in ep 15 is Zhang Chu Lan, the ML's actor role in "I am Nobody"

Does anyone have a link to the OST (Traveler in the Mortal World by Curley Gao) with the rap in it? I can't find any with the male rap part.

It's the song that's played in the ending credit scene of the last few episodes (including the final episode).

Ep 1, 2 minutes in

Oh wow, thanks to some of yall's comments, I went to rewatch episode 1 and realised Lin Yan isn't their ancestor.

They used "我们以为的祖先”, meaning "the person we mistook for our ancestor".

First 10 seconds into the show and I feel the same vibes as New Life Begins and My Heroic Husband (turns out they have the same scriptwriters), which means it would be a fantastic show.

These shows produced by the same director/scriptwriters usually have very similar casts (i believe they are one agency), except for the ML and FL. Best part of these type of shows are the "slice of life" aspect.

The full drama is already out 3 days ago btw, it's just not subbed.

For a short drama, this was actually really really good.

First half was really good, second half fell off abit but was still pretty good. OSTs were surprisingly good for a short drama, and the cast (specifically the main cp and even the minor roles) were really good.

6th case completed yes. Drama with Beidu princess, unknown if they are going to continue it, seems no, so drama probably done.

She was married and had two daughters, one of which was also kidnapped together. Qin An then set fire to kill her previous family. The daughter survived the fire, who turned out to be...

Cai He, who has an affair with Qin Chen.

Qin Chen's father, Qin An(?), use human traffickers to do disgusting things to really young girls, before killing them with the help of the butler who died. His previous wife, the 2nd one who died in the well, was also kidnapped by them.

I went to read the novel for the second case, and if you want to know the plot, you can read the spoilers below, but it will spoil the entire case for you. First spoiler is why Qin family is getting killed and second spoiler is identity of killer.

Yep, the name of the book before it cued to the female script writer was "A Dream within a Dream" and the director that called her is the director of this show.

So both SYM's and NH's worlds were fictional worlds.

Usually, chinese dramas have "express package", where they release the final 6 episodes to the VIP watchers, aka those who paid for them.

Yes, happy ending, but the last 3 episodes were like ?.?, wasn't bad but yea.

Final episode was great though, definitely one of the better endings in CDramas, but I don't think they fully explained things?

白首同心 - bai shou tong xin

Each individual's word meaning
白 - white
首 - first/head/lead-er
同 - together/same
心 - heart

For people who aren't good in English/Mandarin, they tend to do direct translation of each individual words, which was what SYM did.
